What does NO APPARENT DEFECT, DISEASE OR DISABILITY in the medical check up mean?

[Woofey&Chaka 2]

I managed to look through my medical check result envelope with a lamp and I could see the physician marked the box that says NO APPARENT DEFECT, DISEASE OR DISABILITY and didn't mark the ones that say CLASS A and CLASS B CONDITIONS.

I was freaking out about the results of my check up and how it could make everything result in a visa denial, but I think what these papers say is that I have no problems just as the doctor told me in the appointment. What do you think about it?

That you are a healthy person, with no medical issue?

it means that you passed the physical exam and there is no medical reason for denial

Thank you, ma friend...:') I felt really bad because I told the physician I had tried weed once, but I told him it was only once. It seems he saw I am not a junkie or drug abuser indeed...

Maybe but you still have that monkey on your back. What will you say if asked at the interview?

Well, that's a question they almost never ask if your medical test doesn't indicate anything. But if they ask about that, I will probably tell the truth and see what happens as far as I know the CO would order a new medical check up to verify the results I hand over at the embassy

No.

There are also boxes to have class A or class B conditions, and people are not denied for those. If you had a disability, say you were paralyzed, it would be noted on your medical but not a reason for denial. The results of your medical and the prospects of your visa are mostly unrelated. Only certain medical issues directly affect your visa and cause denial (certain communicable diseases, etc).

First of all let me join the chorus that you passed the medical exam.

As for the weed, now that the cat is out of the bag, you may have to deal with it. If asked the best answer is "I tried it once ,<whatever amount of time ago> and now realize it was a stupid misake, never to happen again." That should bury it.
